Ireland need a stupidly high scoring win tomorrow to make it through to the next round. What are the chances?

Question

In order to make it through to the next round of the world cup, Ireland need an outrageously high scoring win against Argentina tomorrow.

On a scale of 1 to 10, and based on their poor performance so far in the tournament, how do you rate their chances?

Answer 1

They will be joining Wales by the looks of it...............

my rate  is..........3!

Answer 2

Argies no great team? we are higher than any european country! and We are Pumas, not Argies.

Answer 3

well if france get their bonus point over goergia which they will. they only need to score 4 tries and keep argy from scoring 4 tries and beat the argies by more than 7 points as hawkeye said.

its difficult to tell. my optimism had been shattered these past two weeks, but i am a glutton for punishment. im dreamin but ireland - 25

arg-  17

Answer 4

i think they were very unlucky against the french, and to be honest the argies are no great team, i give them all the chance in the world, i also give Georgia a chance against a very un-impressive french side.

and for those antagonists you can't have it both ways either the french were very impressive or the Irish are a poor side, and which they should have beaten, and we know its not the later.

Answer 5

remember the luck of the Irish

Answer 6

They will be lucky to get any sort of win tomorrow.

Answer 7

Points differential means nothing.  They only need to win by more than 7 and score four tries.  If they do that AND stop Argentina getting 4 tries, they are through.

Still... I give them a 3.... very unlikely but not impossible.

Answer 8

there is no way i tell you!!! they are just a terrible team at this world cup. let Argentina win they are just better
